“…Similar case was reported in spinach. Biochar application improved flavonoid activity by reducing the adverse effect of free radicals and ROS (Prasetya et al 2021). In the current study BC (32.5 g/pot) improved the anthocyanin production in spinach which is related to previous investigation.…”

Increasing nickel (Ni) concentration in plant cells causes physiological, metabolic and cellular alterations, which causes severe damage to the plants. Among various strategies to reduce Ni toxicity in plants, the use of biochar (BC) is very feasible method as it has potential to immobilize Ni which ultimately causes soil remediation. The present study was conducted to determine the role of BC in mitigating Ni stress. Two varieties of spinach (Desi and Green Gold), were subjected to BC (16.25 and 32.5 g) and Ni (5 mM) treatment. Results revealed that the length, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root were improved by application of BC at 32.5 g, however, application of Ni reduced all studied growth parameters. Among photosynthetic pigments, chlorophyll (chl) a, chl b, total chl and carotenoids were also improved at 32.5 g BC under Ni stress conditions. Biochar reduced the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 32.5 g by increasing enzymatic antioxidant superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) while, Ni stress raised the concentration of MDA and H2O2. Among organic osmolytes, BC at 32.5 g improved the concentration of glycine betain, total soluble proteins and total soluble sugars and lowered the toxic effects of Ni stress. The uptake of mineral ions such as Ca2+ and K+ were improved and Na+ concentration was reduced by applying BC at 32.5 g under Ni stress conditions. In conclusion, the application of BC at 32.5 g/ pot enhanced plant growth, photosynthetic pigments, osmolytes, antioxidants, ionic contents and lowered oxidative stress determinants to ameliorate Ni stress condition.

“…Afterward, the pH was measured in saturated paste extract by a pH meter (Model METROHM632), EC by an EC meter (Model JENWAY4310), and cation exchange capacity (CEC) was measured at pH=7 using 1 mol L -1 ammonium acetate, respectively (Moncada et al, 2014). The Walkley-Black method was utilized to measure the organic matter content (Prasetya et al, 2021)., Moreover, the concentrations of total nitrogen N, phosphorus P, and potassium K were determined through the Kjeldahl method (Page et al, 1982). The bulk density (BD), particle density (PD), and total porosity of the soil mixture were measured using the cutting ring method with a volume of 100 cm3 at the central laboratory of Lorestan University (Fan et al, 2015).…”

This study investigated the sole effect of cattle manure biochar (B) and Stockosorb superabsorbent (SA) and their combination on the physiological characteristics of savory (S.rechingeri Jamzad) under drought stress. A field experiment was conducted in a completely randomized block design as a factorial split plot with three replications for two consecutive years. The treatments included three levels of drought stress (100, 80 and 60 % of FC) as DS0, DS1, and DS2 which were assigned as main plots, and the combination of two biochar rates of 0 and 10 t ha-1(B0 and B1), and two super absorbent Stockosorb® rates of 0 and 6 g per plant-1 (SA0 and SA1) were allocated as subplots. After two years, the results demonstrated that drought stress reduced relative water content (RWC), chlorophyll content, and dry shoot weight. Also, the proline, electrolyte leakage (EL%) rate, flavonoid content, photosynthetic pigments increased in plants. Individual application of biochar, and SA had a significant effect on the amount of RWC%, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll and carotenoid content. Biochar application had no significant impact on proline content and the EL% rate; in comparison to the control treatment, the application of SA resulted in a 15.1% decrease in EL% rate and a 21.4% decrease in proline content. In summary, the application of cattle manure biochar and superabsorbent are suitable amendments to improve the physiological status of savory under drought-stress conditions.

Introduction: Biochar application and r esearch have experienced a significant increase in recent decades. It can produce different kinds of organic materials, and it can be employed for different purposes, such as soil conditioning, carbon sequestration and filtration of pollutants from gas and aqueous media. Biochar is a C-rich material, which can be obtained from different types of organic feedstock, such as animal manure, sewage sludge, wood and crop residues and other organic waste. It is also considered an environmentally friendly and resource-saving approach in medicinal and aromatic plants production. Biochar can lead to plant growth improvement and influence on chemical components of medicinal plants, stimulate the growth of soil microflora, increase soil carbonsequestration, bioremediation of soil, regulate carbon fluxes between atmosphere and biosphere, reduce biotic stress in plants, improve soil nutrient availability, decrease abiotic stress in plants, wastewater treatment, immobilization and sorption of soil heavy metal contaminants. Method: Relevant literature has been obtained using the keywords “biochar”, “organic amendment”, “soil quality”, “medicinal Plants”, “natural products”, “soil quality”, “macronutrient”, and “chemical components” in scientific databases, such as “PubMed”, “SciFinder”, “Elsevier”, and “Web of Science”. Result: The aim of this literature review is to study the impact of different kinds of biochars on medicinal and aromatic plants, soil quality and soil fertility by considering case studies of successful paradigms. Conclusion: Conclusively, we consider our review article will provide an appropriate guide for practitioners and researchers for future studies as well as large-scale field applications.
